Mundesley Village

Mundesley is a pretty village situated on the coast of North Norfolk and
has a resident population of around 2,500. It is a mixture of rich farming land and a popular seaside resort, frequented by
many people during the summer. The beautiful beach is one of the cleanest around and there are
plentiful sands stretching for miles with very little shingle.

Mundesley has its own inshore lifeboat, which is crewed and administered by local volunteers. Have a look
at their impressive website via the Links Page. There is also a Coastwatch station, manned all year
round during daylight hours by local volunteers and, during the summer there is a safe area of the beach
continually watched over by the lifeguards from the RNLI.

The village itself is well served by local shops in and around its small High Street.
A well-equipped medical centre, a library, a post-office, three pubs and various B&Bs make it an ideal place
to live or to visit yet, somehow, it has not lost its old-world charm with thatched roofs, stone walls
and many quaint and charming cottages.

Mundesley sits in a dip in the cliffs and from the clifftops there are spectacular views across the whole of the village and right across
to Happisburgh lighthouse in the other direction. From the clifftop, you can walk across to Stow Mill
passing the Mundesley Holiday Centre.

At least twice a year, there is a play or musical staged by the Mundesley Players in
the Coronation Hall and this is a hugely popular event. There is also a village cinema showing a film every month. Shortly after Christmas there is a pantomime
produced in aid of various local charities..

All in all, Mundesley is a real example of
an unspoilt English village.
